We Meet at Golden Corral, 3888 Stone Mountain Hwy, Snellville, GA
Are you tired of waiting for deals to fall in your lap? When you drive neighborhoods looking for properties, do you know what to look for? Does the thought of talking with Sellers face-to-face make you nervous? Do you avoid knocking on doors because you’re afraid you don’t know what to say when someone comes to the door?
These are all very common fears that many beginning investors face when seeking out their first few deals. Learning how to deal with these issues early on can make the difference between your success and failure.
If you would like to overcome common challenges such as these, please be sure to join Don DeRosa and Dustin Griffin for this full day workshop & field trip where you will learn in the class and in the field…

- How to track down and find the owners of vacant properties
- How to put a follow up system in place to track every prospect
Door Knocking & Talking with Sellers Face to Face
- How to overcome your fear of talking to sellers
- What scripts to use for practicing talking to sellers
- How to ensure you get invited in the house
- What marketing material you need to have with you
- How to handle objections without knowing all the answers
- What marketing to leave behind if the owner isn’t home
- All this and more…
For the field trip, you will be paired up with another classmate and literally go into the field and drive for dollars, door knock and talk to live sellers as well as seeking out and finding vacant properties. If you follow our instructions, you will likely finish the day with several very hot leads.
If talking with sellers is a challenge for you, then you DO NOT want to miss out on this BRAND-NEW TRAINING EVENT we created just for YOU!
There will be lots of hands-on practical applications in this event unlike anything you’ve probably ever seen before. We will immerse you in the real estate investor experience so that you will quickly learn the skills you need to give you the confidence to talk with Sellers like a seasoned PRO.

How To Take Advantage Of New Tax Laws with Roger Herring
Posted on January 21, 2019 byNo Charge for Atlanta REIA Members, Guests $15 at the Door.
One Year Ago, we did a presentation at Atlanta REIA West with Roger Herring to a packed house about the new tax code and how it would affect real estate investors. The law was so new then, it wasn’t proven. It’s now one year later and as some of the dust settles, we are beginning to get clarity on the new law.
The new tax law is making sweeping changes in how real estate investors conduct their business. Would you agree that the biggest tax code change in thirty years means that it is time to update your strategy?
Join us for this special presentation at the Atlanta REIA West Real Estate Event at 6:00pm on Monday, January 28th at The Cherokee Cattle Company at 2710 Canton Rd in Marietta. This Presentation is to help make investors aware of the changes in the playing field. As any new law with the vast scope of this one it takes time to sort out the opportunities and pitfalls created by this major overhaul of the Federal Tax Code.
The New Tax Law has impacted:
- Entity Selection
- Deprecation Strategies for Landlords
- 1031 Strategies
- The New Qualified Business Income Deduction
- Power Partnerships and how they work
- And Many Other Sweeping Changes
There will be a review of what happened to investors in 2018( tax-wise), and if you didn’t take advantage last year, how you can avoid the same mistake this year. Bring Your Questions for Roger about Taxes. Also, come tell the group about your deal you are looking to sell, What you are looking for to invest in, or your real estate related business. DO NOT MISS THIS EVENT! RSVP Now!
Come join us on Monday, January 28th at 6:00PM at the The Cherokee Cattle Company at 2710 Canton Rd in Marietta. There will be lots of learning and lots of networking. Bring your Flyers, your deals, haves, wants and needs to the event.

Scott says “What can the Flipping House Rabbi teach you? Yes, I am a Messianic Rabbi and that is my first and most important calling, but I have also been in business all my life. In fact, at age 12, I was audited by the IRS. After high school, I passed the real estate exam while going to Mercer University for my Business degree. So from selling pretzels at a flea market, to owning several retail businesses, to now owning a HomeVestors Franchise buying and selling over 70 houses in just 2 ½ years, I can teach you… a lot.

A New Paradigm for Building Wealth Without the Stress of Risky Investments with Paul Rossano at BIG Online
Posted on January 14, 2019 byTues, Jan 22nd @ 7PM on Zoom Webinar
with Paul Rossano
That’s a BOLD promise! Anyone who is familiar with George Antone and his proven advanced strategies know they are in for a treat because George always fulfills on his bold promises!
George, a 3-time best-selling author and thought leader in the finance and investing space, has blown the lid off a new paradigm no one is teaching; or even talking about, until now!
Imagine low-risk and low-stress strategies that are implemented one time and placed on autopilot to work FOR you starting ASAP – all in 6 hours or less per month!
In fact, keep reading for a $100k+ strategy that will be revealed in this presentation!
No, this is not a “get rich quick” strategy, but a fascinating way to tweak finance to make it work for you in amazing ways!
The traditional methods of building wealth can be grouped into 3 main categories: Investing, Trading and Saving. These traditional methods work; however, they require a lifetime commitment of learning and implementation.
George has been working on this new paradigm, a 4th method, called “Hacking Finance” – that promises the ability to LEARN and IMPLEMENT each financial strategy within a total of 6 hours or less, and then place it on autopilot to keep working for you!
…and you are about to walk away with one of these $100k+ “shortcuts” just from this presentation! This is NOT an overnight $100k+ strategy, but something you implement one time, and it builds over a number of years into $100k or more on autopilot.
What if you are already investing or lending? Quite simply, these methods will increase your existing returns tremendously! Come discover from George’s #1 trainer how to boost your yields by combining this system with your existing investments!
That’s exactly why we’re excited to have Paul Rossano, George’s top trainer, as our guest speaker this month at the Beginning Investors Group Online on Tuesday, January 22nd at 7PM ET where he will be sharing this unique and creative new way to approach finance and investing.
Paul will also be sharing this new paradigm, and will give you details of ONE of those strategies that banks use (called “floats”), that you can use to skyrocket your wealth. Paul will demonstrate what you need to do the very next morning at your local bank to increase your wealth by $100k+ over a number of years on autopilot without the stress of risky investments… and this is just ONE of MANY strategies!
Some people work hard. Others work smart. This is working smart!
If you want your path to financial freedom made easier, then this is something you cannot afford to miss out on! It just might be what you are looking for!
With a few financial tweaks and this different approach, you’ll find you have more time and money to work with than you thought.
Leap forward financially with less risk, less stress, and more time to enjoy life!
RSVP for the Webinar Now and join us on Tuesday, January 22nd at 7PM ET and experience what George’s inner circle is using to build their wealth and peace of mind, in a relatively short period of time.
This is truly exciting stuff to know and we’re excited it’s being shared with us!
See you there!
